Police: Conklin fugitive charged with DWI

A Conklin woman charged with drunken driving was also wanted on an arrest warrant in Pennsylvania, according to Broome County Sheriff's deputies.

Paulette Dykeman, 46, was pulled over on Conklin Avenue in Binghamton early this morning for a traffic violation, police said.

After a sheriff's deputy determined she was intoxicated, it was also discovered she did not have a valid driver's license and was wanted as a fugitive from justice, police said. Her blood alcohol content was above the legal limit, at 0.14 percent, police said.

Dykeman was charged with aggravated unlicensed operation of a vehicle, a felony; driving while intoxicated, driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.08 percent or greater, misdemeanors; unlicensed operation of a vehicle, inadequate headlamps, both violations; and also held on the Pennsylvania arrest warrant.

She was arraigned and sent to the Broome County jail to await extradition to Pennsylvania.
